| Sorry but no pram factory on this photo. The factory with the tall chimney is W E Saxby Ltd. Dyers. They were on Bar Lane, the road behind the factory on the photograph. Across the road from there are two schools under construction. The nearest is Ellis School for boys and the building at the top is Guildford School for girls. Both Schools have now been demolished and replaced by a new combined College. |   Beduth | Tuesday 26th of June 2012 09:50:07 PM |
